The Springfield YMCA

We are excited to begin reopening our Springfield Family YMCA facilities on May 26! We want to keep our members safe and protected while they use our facilities, so we are following strict guidelines from the CDC and state authorities. On May 26, we will begin reopening our YMCA in phases, and will gradually get back to our new normal.

Members must maintain minimum of 6 feet distance.

All staff and members will have their temperature checked upon entering the facility.

Staff will be wearing personal protective equipment (masks and gloves).

We will have controlled access to the facilities through one entrance.

No open basketball. Shooting may occur with family members or individuals.

No pickleball in Phase 1.

Locker rooms will be open, but showers will not be available.

No towel service.

Bring your own water bottle.

Members will be given disinfectant and a towel to clean before and after they touch a surface.

No guests will be permitted. Facility use will only be for members with active accounts in Phase 1.

Limited fitness classes will be offered in Phase 1. Reservations 24 hrs in advance will be required to attend.

No use of steam rooms, as a minimum safe distance of 6 feet and cleaning cannot be maintained.

Check operating hours during Phase 1 & 2. They will fluctuate based activity and cleaning.

Only every other cardio equipment will be used.

Members must disinfect equipment before and after use. Staff will also disinfect.

Members must wash hands before and after working out with soap and water for at least 20 seconds.

Increased signage throughout the building to encourage social distance, hand-washing and remind members to disinfect equipment.

Pools will have expanded services and Child Watch will reopen in YMCA Phase 2.

We will continue to review these guidelines regularly and communicate changes through email, our website and social media to meet federal, state and local guidelines. We will continue providing virtual resources and will expand those services for our members who are still sheltering at home.
